“Dyschromia”
No lake/sea serpents are more varied and colorful than the Icelandic ones. From Meeting with Monsters: "Hvitá river in Árnessýsla district (enormous and gaudy), lake Hvatlan on Botnsheiði moor (striped with a cat-like head), Skaftá river in the district of Vestur-Skaftafellssýsla (large and multi-colored)".

The 10th chapter of “THE BLIND WIZARD - The curse of the lake” is out ! Check it out -> HERE !
Once again, I apologize for the slow update. I am not far from being halfway through the story as I planned it. However, now is time for me to take a little break (others projets on the side are desperately waiting to be attended to haha!) But worry not, I am far from done, and "The Blind Wizard" will make its return ! As for now, please enjoy your read :)

After it was thrown in the lake, the slug grew to such size that it began to occasionally come ashore and terrorize the countryside with its appetite and its poisonous spit. Eventually the worm was subdued, but the gold ring could neither be retrieved from under it, nor could they manage to kill the creature. Instead they chose to tie its head and its tail to the bottom of the lake. Its continued growth since then means that its body occasionally reaches the surface, or even arches above it. The sightings of this phenomenon are considered ill omens.

BREAKING: Champ on Sonar?!
Katy Elizabeth known from her Champ Search, recently was messaged by Scott Thurber. He was out fishing within a “ball of bait” area, and happened to glance over at his Garmin, and quickly took a screen shot that captured this incredible image that looks like the shape and form. Of what New Yorkers and Vermonters would identify, as Champ the Lake Champlain Sea Serpent. Katy will be conducting an…

Storsjöodjuret- the Great Lake Serpent
There are many sea monsters that are at work in different regions of the world, and this time there is a kind of sea serpent which lives in the lake Storsjön in Jämtland Sweden.
Tumblr media
Storsjöodjuret - The Great Lake Monster (x)
The creature is called Storsjöodjuret which can be simply translated as great lake animal. In Latin it is called Hydogiganta Monstruidae Jemtlandicum. But what is it exactly? It is said to be a sea serpent with a dog's head. The first descriptions of it date back to 1635, but there are probably much older oral accounts of this snake. This first description goes back to Morten Pedersen from Herdal, who reported about a monster in the lake that was banished thanks to the Frösö runestone and can therefore no longer do any harm.
Tumblr media
The Försö Rune Stone with the Serpent (x)
“A strange animal with a black wormlike body and catlike head jumped out of the cauldron and disappeared into the depths of lake Storsjön. The animal enjoyed the the lake, grew immensely and caused horror among the people living around the shores. Finally, it had gotten to the point where it was long enough to reach around the island Frösön and could bite itself in the tail.”  Morten Pedersen (x)
It is said to have strangled people and hunted the fishermen who fished there. Until 1857, this was all that was reported about the animal, but from then on, sightings were reported. In 1857, according to some newspapers, miners from the nearby mine saw the creature with a cat's head. Until 1899, there were a total of 22 sightings, which were collected by Peter Olsson. He himself was a naturalist and tried to explain the animal naturally and suspected that it could be a not yet known marine mammal which could have gotten lost there (similarities to Nessy are not to be denied) and he described it as follows, it was snake-like with a dog-like head, fins as ears and several humps or spines on its back. This scared some people and so in 1894, after about 500 sightings, there was a capture campaign, which was even supported by King Oscar II.

However, this failed and so nobody knows what kind of monster it is and when it will be seen again, because since then it has kept a very low profile. But the locals have taken their monster to their hearts and say it is a friendly monster which has even been protected by law since 1986.

i think the solution to my problems is just to have a partner of some sort who's exactly as adoring and mildly clingy as i am because then neither of us will find each other creepy and i'll know for a fact they won't find me creepy or too clingy because they'll be the same way with me. and then idk we can spiral sea serpent together like that couple in uzumaki and escape into the ocean and be together forever Woah That's A Paragraph

Due to one possible origin as arriving to earth from upon a meteor, this creature of Seneca folklore has also been referred to by some as the "Meteor Dragon"

Have You Heard About Champ? --Monster of Lake Champlain --with Clippings 1873-1929
In 2018 the woman who took the iconic photo of “Champ” died. Sandra Mansi lost her battle with cancer when she was 74. On Tuesday afternoon, July 5, 1977, Sandra Mansi of Bristol, Connecticut, knelt on the shores of Lake Champlain somewhere between St. Albans, Vermont, andthe Canadian border, and snapped what is widely touted as the best lake monster photograph ever taken. To the best of anyone’s…
